My side of the family is slowly trickling into the state for their annual vacations in Maine, for two weeks this year instead of the usual 7 days. It’s nice though, getting to see each group when they arrive instead of showing up to 20-something people all at once, all in one house. It will be that level of craziness come Sunday, when they’re planning to throw (yet another) baby shower for us. Much as I enjoy not spending money, three baby showers is too damn high. I’m hopeful that my brother found the copy of Go the F#$k to Sleep we gave them when my niece was born.

One of our ducks, Pearl, hatched out a dozen little babies under my potting bench. While she’s exceptional at hatching them, she is a less than stellar mother and I have been responding to alarm peeps regularly while she sits around with the ones who manage to keep up with her.

There’s just so much hidden goodness inside! My last playthrough has me struggling less, and I found more, but apparently I just wasn’t thorough enough

Trying to actually get the good ending in Tunic, not too proud to admit I’m using a tracker this time around. And wow, I passed up SO. MUCH. last time around

Iirc the leaked internal docs and reporting showed that nvidia was downloading 81 years worth of video per day. If the pattern holds, and we “throw” the books at them, it probably looks a lot like one of those building-sized front end loaders dropping the library of Alexandria on those executives.

As an alternative, I would be fine if nvidia were no longer allowed to hold copyright or trademarks since the company believes that those don’t matter, required to share all internal documents (including any and all planning), and required to open source all their code until the company implodes

Here’s hoping the plaintiffs can bring the leaked internal docs from nvidia’s management directing engineers to violate the TOS of several sites to show a pattern of malfeasance, and that the judge has at least a modicum of understanding regarding these topics. Throw the book(s) at 'em.

To the file holder of the gdrive, it says no access.

And I was under the impression you were further than that, that’s definitely manageable!

Absolutely! I ship fall/spring but if you’re ever down by the Ogunquit/Berwicks area for stuff you are invited!

I have sent an access request

‘300’ meme but they’re helping someone out of the pit instead while “This. Is. Beehaw” is shouted

If you’d like any of my plants this fall shipping season, they’re yours

Wow, you’re incredible! Again, from the very subcockles of my heart - Thank you!

that was fast! I’ve not heard of that format before just now, and don’t see it in my list of vlc formats so I don’t think so.

And thank you! I love this space and the people here

there are a handful of tracks on youtube, and someone on soundcloud has a collection as well if I were to pay the subscription to play them offline but as Tomas Kalnoky has said “it’s old music and kids have a right to know”. I’m hoping someone might be able to share and prevent me from having to do some wacky things to get it all locally, but I see and appreciate you

I use it/its in spaces where I do not plan on engaging with people as individuals, like on youtube where I get hundreds of comments and I’m not going to bother reading usernames

Like @Vodulas I’m a little perplexed by this and hope you won’t mind providing some more clarity

Standard “I don’t appreciate being in this meme” comment except this is actually my favorite movie so I kinda do

They’re one of my favorite aspects of life here. We call them to their coop at night with “all ducks, go to bed” but during the day the adults will come check what I’m up to wherever I am.

I will… My wife came home with boatloads of baby stuff we had to sort through so I didn’t get to work on the write up for folks. By way of an apology, here are two of the books she got

On the right is a book titled “Who Pooped on Me” depicting an evening sky in the jungle and an angry looking iguana with neon pink poop on its head]

Hey nice! I think that post was one of our first few interactions with each other. It’s awesome to know you’re working on it and I can’t wait to see some of your photos - particularly when that bee balm starts advertising itself to your locals!

Chewing will cause them to mix as well, but there’s less time for the compounds to catalyze and “mature” to change the flavor very much

Nice! Those fast growing self seeders make for bountiful gardens
